- Public Accounts Committee: 2018 Financial Statements of the Charities Regulatory Authority (21 Nov 2019)

Catherine Connolly: Is it the case that no income was recorded after 2007 by the charity when income was generated in the form of donations? That is not clear to me from the Department’s post-project review in any event. Did the regulator confirm in its report that the charity in question raised moneys from donations?

Catherine Connolly: Did various entities or people donate that money?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2018 Financial Statements of the Charities Regulatory Authority (21 Nov 2019)
Catherine Connolly: I might come back to that at the next meeting with the Department. I do not see those donations reflected in the post-project review.

Catherine Connolly: Human nature being what it is and trustees doing their best. The mistake was made with the Morris tribunal that we thought those activities were confined to that county. Obviously, this kind of behaviour is not confined to one group of trustees. There are many points to be identified and learned from.

Chapter 9 - Greenhouse Gas-Related Financial Transactions: Discussion (Resumed) (21 Nov 2019) Catherine Connolly: I read the chapter and listened carefully today, inside and outside the meeting room, and the message from the Comptroller and Auditor General is that it is difficult to track the net expenditure. There is a recommendation to the Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment and other Accounting Officers. We have little time left regarding climate change, and I tire of the...
